New gbta how does he look?

[andrea.nichols.1650]

I just got it yesterday .. He looked totally diff in the store under their lights but this his my first one so i wanna know if it looks normal or not ?

I got it under white leds at the moment and a colormax pc bulb.

Okay so i was just informed that my anemone is a condy and not a gbta... I hope not

It does indeed look like a condy, I could be wrong though

The fish store had it labeled as a bubble anemone ... And they dis have a tank full of condys for like 10 dollars but they had long white tentacles with purple tips and a red/ orange foot mine has a tan foot ... I just didnt think condys were that stubby looking cuz all the others didnt

I recently just got a small GBTA ay my LFS and it looks similar to yours. Funny thing is that I was wondering the same thing.

Go to my other forum under lps identification it says anemone????? And read the comments still not straight answer yet but diff ideas

 

[reynaldoramon]

Just read it. Hoping it's like they said, a malnourished bta. Mine is way smaller than yours is. I suppose only time will tell for us both.

Yeah well im hoping that it is a bta cuz if it is a condybit will sting all my coral cuz they like to move but it hasnt moved and my red people eaters are right beside it like almost touching n they look fine ... But a sebae that i deff dont want yet... Tanks too young and i dont have the time watch it non stop

It's interesting you talk about moving 'nems. I also have a rock flower anemone. Had it since October or November of last year. Hasn't moved since. Well today it decided to go for a stroll. Got one polyp of a Purple people eater and a Red people eater. Hoping they survive. The purple lost some color on part of the stem and it's retracted. The red has shrunken. Sucks.

If they got stung decline will happen pretty fast it will basically just melt away if it was a bad enough sting anything soft gets it the worst ... I just dont want my duncan to get stung thats my pride and joy next to my frog spawn but my frog spawn will fight back... Not sure it would win tho

Time frame since Sunday now the battle between bta and hydronophora begins
